About the film

Tom 'Putuparri' Lawford has been fighting for 20 years to regain his people's sacred waterhole 'Kurtal'. Supported by his grandparents Spider and Dolly, Putuparri navigates the deep chasm between his western upbringing and his traditional culture. Plagued by alcoholism and domestic violence, Putuparri must stay strong and put his traditional culture first if he is to secure the future of Kurtal for his people.
